Look at your veggie intake pre Atkins and see what veggies your body liked. Lettuce is certainly not your only option. Reread the Atkins induction food sticky and see if any of your old favorites are induction friendly.
It also might be a problem for you simply because of the volume. If you were eating 2 or 3 servings of veggies a day and are now eating 6 servings, you might want to ease up on the quantities. A serving is 1 cup of lettuce or 1/2 cup of anything else.

Yup, I was practically eating no fruits and vegetables and now all this lettuce and a bit of veggies. I think I will be cutting back, at least on the lettuce. Thanks!
